The Brunswick power plants, located in North Carolina, are at risk of deteriorating caused by constant flooding from destructive Hurricane Florence.
Friday morning Hurricane Florence hit the Brunswick nuclear power plants in North Carolina with winds of 100+ miles per hour.
The eye of the hurricane — where the winds are the most severe — is right now swirling directly over the nuclear power containment buildings, battering them with 100+ MPH winds. …there are at least twelve active nuclear power plants in the direct path of Hurricane Florence. Natural News
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission has decided the power plants will be going on a “hot shutdown,” which demands human supervision, however, facility mechanics and employees are prevented from being onsite.
UNUSUAL EVENT DUE TO SITE CONDITIONS PREVENTING PLANT ACCESS
“A hazardous event has resulted in on site conditions sufficient to prohibit the plant staff from accessing the site via personal vehicles due to flooding of local roads by Tropical Storm Florence.”Notified DHS SWO, FEMA OPS, and DHS NICC. Notified FEMA NWC, NuclearSSA, and FEMA NRCC via email.
Meaning, the power plants on a “hot shutdown,” are continually running without surveillance.
Not only that, but if anything goes wrong, it could be disastrous for the United States.
Nuclear power plants require weeks of cooling pumps to function for an effective shutdown. They can’t simply be switched off in an instant like a light switch. If the cooling pumps fail at any time during the weeks-long shutdown procedure, the nuclear fuel rods can boil off the coolant water and rise in temperature until a nuclear meltdown occurs.

The risk of nuclear meltdown from the Brunswick power plants would endanger the entire eastern cost and Atlantic ocean with radiation spills. If a nuclear plant meltdown occurred in the United States, it would unfold in a way closely related to the Fukushima event.
This is what the mainstream media should be covering, but they are busy finding ways to defame President Trump.
